Thinking Allowed

on BBC Radio 4 FM

Laurie Taylor examines whether we can expect a crisis of democracy in modern Britain if today's politically uninterested youth carry their attitudes into middle age. Ron Johnston, professor of geographical sciences at the University of Bristol, unearths disturbing trends in political indifference in society today. And philosopher Ted Honderich asks if democracy is the best way to govern an increasingly apathetic society.
